ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the method of determination for rhein, emodin, chrysophanol and physcion in Niuhuang Qinghuo Pills. Methods Sample was hydrolyzed by 20% H2 SO4 , and anthraquinones were extracted by soxhlet extraction with acetone as solvent, and were determined by HPLC with Kromasil C18 as column, methanol-0.5%H3 PO4 (75:25,V/V) as mobile phase at the flow of 1.0 mL/min, 230 nm as the detection wavelength.Results The linear relationship of rhein, emodin, chrysophanol and physcion were 1.50-150, 0.950-95.0, 1.30-130 and 1.15-115 mg/L. The anthraquinones were seperated completely, the recovery of 4 anthraquinones were 98.14% -101.3%.Conclusion This method is simple, accurate, steady, and could be used for the quality control of Niuhuang Qinghuo Pills.
ABSTRACT
Simultaneous distillation-extractor was used for extracting the volatile substances in Phellodendron chinense Schneid.41 Volatile components were identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method. Of them the main components are ketones(16.38%),aldehydes(13.94%),alcohols(8.27%),phenols(50.38%),esters(3.02%),acids(2.18%).The content of the 41 identified compounds makes up 97.50% of the total volatile substances detected
ABSTRACT
Objective: To extract and determine the flavonoids of hawthorn fruits and their antioxidative effect. Method: The ultrasonic method was used for extracting flavonoids. The content of flavonoids was determined by spectrophotometry, and the antioxidation effect was determined by flow-injection chemiluminescence.. Results and Conclution: The recovery rate was 96%～105% and the coefficient of variation was 0.14 % by spectrophotometry. Hawthorn fruits had high antioxidative effect, showing dose-response relation.
